[mch2022-deco] art proposal: living tiny house 'lumi' - with lots of lights :)

[Edwin Dertien]

Hi WHY2025 Deco team,

I have a fun art project to propose for WHY2025. Last year I developed a 
robot-house which was both set and character in a theatre play, did 
pop-up performances and was exhibited as 'art piece'. I think it can be 
a fun addition to the festival. It is reasonably large (2x5 m base, 5 m 
high when extended). It has big illuminated eyes, can drive around, 
stretch it legs (the house is mounted on a hydraulic scissor lift) etc. 
(see pictures).

There is however one snag. I would really like to live in it during the 
festival (so I don't mind driving it around on a central spot every now 
and then, but I would like to station the house at night at a village 
(I'm via a different route part of the Fabacademy/Fabrication village)

So. would this project fit your idea of art / deco?

Would it be possible perhaps to organise things with locating the 
Fab-Village in such way that it is reasonably close to a road to the 
festival grounds (so I can drive there with the house and entertain 
people there as well)

I typically use my camper van as backup/storage/repair shop, and am on 
the waiting list for a camper spot. This is probably not going to 
happen, so is there a different combination to make? (other than putting 
house on camp ground, camper on parking spot, bring a folding bike)

And, finally, would it be possible to organise a power socket in our 
village as back-up for when I cannot get the solar panels to work and 
wind-power is letting us down?

I can provide a technical rider with RF frequencies used for control, 
wind/weather/mud conditions etc. - we did some pretty exhaustive testing 
last year /(even up to the point where we developed a tilting mechanism 
to get the 750kg weighing monster sideways through a 1.8m door opening)./

Cheers,

Edwin
